Regarding worldly Christianity, it’s everywhere. And those who blend with a godless culture because of their misunderstanding of their priceless blood-bought ‘freedom’ in Christ, will not have the strength to stand in these latter days. And, like Lot of the Old Testament, they’ll lose their credibility among the lost because they’ve lived amongst them for too long. We need to reach out for and love the lost, but too often we use that ‘call’ to live like them as well. God forgive us!
Jesus says to guard against the influences of legalism and worldliness. Don’t spend too much time worrying about doing it all right every minute of the day. Scripture says time and time again that it’s God and His Word that work in us to make us more like Him, that we might act just like Him.
Oh, how I love Jesus. Don’t you?
